Does anyone here have some recommendations of a nice seasonal park in Virginia or North Carolina we can checkout?

Have a 30' 5er that we now keep in storage across town. Due to work and other commitments, we have a hard time making camping reservations far in advance, and there always is the question of the whether the weather will be decent.

So the solution would be a place we can drive to at the last moment and with little hassle, with the RV already on the site. I love the woods, hiking biking etc., but the wife is more of a glamper. So looking for something not too far removed from civilization. We live in Va Beach, kids all grown up and moved out, although there may be grandkids in the near future.

We are staying here for over a month. Clicky. Located near Boone, NC. Very quiet. Nothing fancy. Not many campfires. Can have the windows open 24/7. Although 60 degree mornings might be to cold for some it's great from us. :B

Take a look at Bethpage Camp Resort in Urbanna, Virginia. There should be lots of sites to pick from there. It's a great place for kids.

We keep ours on a seasonal site at Joe and Kays in Kill Devil Hills, NC, it is about 90 minutes from our home in Suffolk, and we go almost every weekend between April 1 and Dec. 1. There is probably a wait list for a site, but there also a few other CGs in the area that are open to seasonals, lots to do in the area, and very close to the beach, without as much crowd as VB. Good luck

In suffolk, Va there's a place called Davis Lakes Campground. They have about 20 "weekender" sites on a lake where you can swim and then there's two other lakes where they pull your camper into a parallel spot right on a lake with a dock right at your step at every site. Stocked lakes, nice people but there is a waiting list to get the lake spots. Call and talk to Denise and she'll give you the details. My wife and I lived there for six months last winter. Cold but awesome. They were building when we left there in April so there might be more going on now. It's minutes from downtown suffolk which has a few good restaurants. About 1:15 from Va Beach. We would go back there in a minute if we get stationed in that part of the country again.

I am not familiar with seasonals in those states but you might start by narrowing your selection down to coastal, Piedmont, or mountain areas.

It is open April 1 - November 1. You can camp during the off season (no extra charge) but there are no utilities. I run my Honda EU2000i, flush the toilet with lake water, and eat out at restaurants a couple of nights each winter.

Definitely will check that one out. Is it open to seasonals 12 months a year?

Thanks...Our rig is an Open Range, that's where we had last year's Rally. ๐Ÿ™‚ It is a nice place, and real close to Chincoteague.
